I am looking for a place to put digital photos I’ve collected since 2003. I have a lot! But I used to be a server hardware guy back in the day and know a thing or two about RAID configurations, etc.. I’m comfortable with this technology, but still a bit dated in my skills. I like the footprint of the 923 over the 1522, but for $100 on Amazon, the 1522 make way more sense. So here is my question: At a bare minimum, what do i need to setup the 1522 with two disks? Say two 4tb or two 8tb. What disks would you recommend? Can i buy the Ds1522+, two disks, power it on and set it up, or do I need a cache, or something more to complete the unit properly?
